Average Interview

Application

I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Waste Management (Raleigh, NC) in March 2014.

Interview

face to face interview more of a get to know you and your personality rather than cookie cutter questions. I was able to answer more on my experience and what I do to make connections rather than have to answer "basic" interview questions. Not a why should I hire you but more of a what do you know about the company and how can you help benefit the team.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Waste Management (Raleigh, NC) in December 2014.

Interview

First, a recruiter calls and talks through the position. He then schedules an interview.The interview lasted about an hour for me. Pretty casual setting. No panel, just one-on-one. Hard to gauge response of interviewer.Pay is $45,000 base + 20% commission. This position goes up to $1000 a week contracts. Larger accounts are taken by a large-account specialist.

Interview Questions

Define 'pipeline'. Lots of technical questions from a 30 page file from corporate. He did not ask all the listed questions, but there is a very structured script that dictates the interview. 1 Answer

Outside Sales Representative Interview

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Waste Management in November 2011.

Interview

The local people I interviewed with were very nice. I was a referral, but had to formally apply to the position, which was expected. Turns out there is little communication between the local office and the corporate recruiters - I actually received a decline email from the corporate recruiters while I was in the middle of my second interview. (I got the job).

Outside Sales Representative Interview

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2+ weeks. I interviewed at Waste Management (Indianapolis, IN) in January 2018.

Interview

Phone interview was fine then they send an online video interview for you to do . I have never used an interview tool like this. A question is asked and you are being recorded . The program records your voice and videotapes you. The questions aren’t hard it’s looking at your IPad and seeing yourself trying to answer the questions. I actually fealt like it was a form of discrimination . They could weed me out by my looks and tell what my age was. You supposedly were able to re-record your answers but I tried to give them the first view.I was emailed later that I didn’t get to go to the next step of the interview process. I feel that I was very qualified for this job. I had a job very similar to this once and with my skills I could take off running. Their loss.....

Difficult Interview

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at Waste Management (Phoenix, AZ).

Interview

The individual I interviewed with was rude and cut me off after the first question. He would ask a question and then move on to the next before I got two sentences out. It was as if he had ADD or something?

I then followed-up after the interview and never heard anything from the recruiter. Not even a "Thanks, but we've decided to move on".

It was great because I quickly realized if they are hiring this type of person to do the hiring, then the company culture would be the same; unprofessional, cocky and rude with a toxic atmosphere.

I would try Republic Services if you’re interested in the industry. Stay away at all costs!!!
